My very first car was a Series 3 SWB petrol. I had it for 5 years and it was a rolling refurb sort of car. i.e. I kept improving it but it had to be permanently on the road.

I am finding myself looking closely at adds for V8 90s and 110s

I have just purchased a totally original 1990 Defender 110 V8 County in amazing condiiton with just a little rust on the passenger door frame, undented body work, and unmarked seats. Supplied and maintained by Dunsfolds from new, Phil Bashall knows its complete history.

I got rid of the 110 to get the FFRR ! The 90 is fine if it's just one/two of you and dogs - if you want to carry more people around and have more space then the 110 is better. To tow a trailer/ horse box/ boat the 110 was far better than a 90.

I run a chipped TD5 90 with an autobox and it is great fun to drive and is getting me around in the snow up here in the highlands much better than the FFRR even with its new Vredesteins, the 90 runs General AT2. Have to admit that it is not as refined, comfortable, quiet, warm etc etc but it is not ment to be.

I suspect there are a lot of us FFRR who have a yearning to get a Defender to use off road for fun or on the shoot.

Mick, kitchen project being done by a local company, hand built made to measure, they did our last house, wouldn't use anyone else. Got 4 quotes this time for due diligence but they still blew everyone out of the water for attitude, quality and ability.

I've just whittled my little fleet of toys down to four to tidy up the garden and pay for a holiday... |

I bought myself a 1996 300TDi in January and am slowly but surely adding bits to it (silver one below). There are quite a few out there for silly money, but if you look long and hard enough (and are quick) then there are some nice examples out there.
